Hello everyone, stumbled on your site after doing a google search on some smoking tips.
I've dabbled, successfully/unsuccessfully for a year or 2 on smoking, mostly wings and chicken legs, and still haven't gotten the flavor I like out of it after following the directions. Meat/skin usually has a very strong smoke flavor to it and directions don't mention to only smoke for a certain period of time. I am only using a Masterbuilt electric smoker for now as I don't want to invest in something expensive if I cant ever get the correct hang of it.....cost me $50 from Marketplace, so was a nice starting point.
I am assuming with my next test/batch, that I should only smoke for a short period of time and then just heat afterwards; is this correct? Example-smoke for 30 minutes and just heat for rest of time called for on directions.
I also assume that I could go with or without wrapping in foil for the wings and legs, but it is preferred for larger cuts of meats like loins, roasts, ribs, etc....correct? Example-3,2,1 method I've seen online.
Appreciate any and all feedback.....hope everyone has a great day!
